Abstract:
The satisfaction degree of heavy metal pollution controlled by the farmland rotation and fallow and its influencing factors in the rural heavy metal pollution farmland were investigated in this study, to provide reference basis for the heavy metal pollution governance. Based on the survey data of 400 households from10 villages and towns in 4 districts and counties of Hunan Province, a cumulative logistic regression model was established to explore the satisfaction degree and its influencing factors of farmland rotation and fallow treatment, these were contaminated by heavy metal. The results showed that the higher level the education, the more positive the assessments on the current environmental governance effect and the income satisfaction. Meanwhile, with the increase of the education by one level, their satisfaction degrees were increased by 18% and 24%, respectively. The family income has a negative influence on the satisfaction degree of environmental governance and the satisfaction degree of income. For every increase of family income, the probability of the satisfaction degree increasing by one level increases by −16% and −10% respectively. Moreover, the older the age, the more positive the assessments on the effect of current environmental governance. For each level of age increased, the probability of increasing satisfaction by one level was increased by 80%. However, the evaluation of satisfaction degree of age to income was negative, showing the probability of satisfaction degree decreased one level was increased by 10% with the increase each level of age. The pollution degree of farmland owned by farmers was positively related to the satisfaction degree of environmental treatment and income. The higher the pollution degree of farmland owned by farmers, the higher the probability of satisfaction increased by 23% and 16% respectively. In general, this study suggested that it was necessary to strengthen the publicity of the policies and effects of the heavy metal polluted farmland in the rural areas, improve the quality and efficiency of the household income, raise the average educational level and the environmental cognitive ability of agricultural employees, and promote farmers to actively participate in the process of cultivated land protection and environmental governance.
